We need to output HTML fragment with headings

for sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Only include sections that have real specific content. We must not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate. Must preserve all substantive info. We need to parse the posting: Company Description (maybe not needed as heading? Could be "About the role"? Actually "Company Description" is about the company, not role. The instruction says use headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we need to map content accordingly. We have: - Company Description: description of Continental and ContiTech. Could be placed under "About the role"? Or maybe we can include a short paragraph about company under "About the role". The instruction: "use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule)." So we can include About the role heading and put company description there. - Job Description: includes position title, description, schedule, responsibilities, qualifications, additional ways to stand out, additional information (what we offer). So we need sections: -- About the role: maybe combine company description and position overview. -- Responsibilities: list of key responsibilities. -- Requirements: maybe qualifications? Actually they have "Qualifications" heading in posting. Also "WHAT YOU BRING TO THE ROLE". That's qualifications. Also "Additional Ways To Stand Out" could be considered "Skills" or "Preferred qualifications". Could treat as Skills. -- Benefits: "WHAT WE OFFER" includes paid co-op, opportunity to continue, hands-on experience, mentorship, exposure, networking, potential consideration for future full-time, etc. Also mention "Paid, year-round Co-op opportunity with competitive hourly compensation." That's compensation but not specific number. Since we cannot create Pay section unless posting actually states them. It says "competitive hourly compensation" but no specific number. The instruction: never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. It says "competitive hourly compensation" is a statement about pay but not a specific figure. Does that count as stating them? It states that there is paid, year-round Co-op opportunity with competitive hourly compensation. That is a statement about pay (that it's paid and competitive). I'd argue we can include a Benefits section that mentions paid opportunity, but Pay section maybe not because no specific number. However we could include Pay if we interpret "competitive hourly compensation" as pay info. But instruction: "never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them." It does state that it's paid and competitive hourly compensation. So we could include a Pay section with that statement. However they also say "Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones." Might combine Pay into Benefits. Schedule: they have "Schedule: Year-round opportunity; expected to continue across multiple semesters. Schedule will be coordinated around the student's academic requirements." That's specific schedule info. So we can include Schedule section. Benefits: we have "WHAT WE OFFER" list. So we can include Benefits. Thus sections: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements (Qualifications), Skills (Additional Ways To Stand Out), Benefits (What we offer), Schedule. We must not include headings with filler. Ensure each heading has substantive content. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. Use

    for prose. We must not repeat job title as heading. So no heading for "Product Development Engineering Co-op Year-Round | Multiple Semester Opportunity". We'll just include description in About the role. We must not put Job ID/requisition numbers as headings (none present). Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. At end there is EEO line: "All your information will be kept confidential according to EEO guidelines." That's boilerplate; remove. Also "Students from locations outside of the United States must be employed by Continental in their home country or actively enrolled in a Continental-sponsored international intern program to be considered for a Co-op in the United States. The Company does not sponsor visas for international Co-op students. ContiTech, Halstead Facility will not offer relocation for this Co-op." This is somewhat substantive? It's about eligibility and relocation. Might be considered part of Requirements or Additional Information. It's not boilerplate exactly; it's eligibility info. Should we keep? It's not EEO boilerplate; it's specific to international students. Might be considered part of Requirements or Additional Information. The instruction: remove EEO/equal-opportunity boilerplate. This is not exactly EEO but about visa sponsorship. Might be considered part of Requirements (legal authorization). Already we have "Legal authorization to work in the United States is required. We will not sponsor individuals for employment visas now or in the future for this job opening." That's covered. The extra about international students and relocation is additional detail; we could keep under Requirements or Additional Information. Since we have no "Additional Information" heading, we could incorporate into Requirements or Benefits? Probably Requirements: mention visa sponsorship not offered, no relocation. That's relevant. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all details.
